Pillbag Feature: Pulp Nature and February's Charity of the Month

Be sure to check out the latest Pillbag shoutout at Pulp Nature, a very cool website dedicated to health and autoimmune living. Thanks to the gals at Pulp Nature for putting together a great article about the Pillbags - I LOVE seeing the Pillbags article under the "Fashion/Beauty" section of a website!

I'm happy to be teaming up with Pulp Nature for February's Charity of the Month. Because Pulp Nature focuses on the health and wellness of those living with any autoimmune disease, rather than just lupus, we've decided to donate the proceeds of the sale of all Pillbags during the month of February to the National Multiple Sclerosis Society, a charity near and dear to the founders of Pulp Nature.

Take a moment to check out their site here - there is so much good stuff, you're liable to be there for hours!

Sara Gorman

In 2001, I was diagnosed with systemic lupus, at the age of 26. I had been married less than 6 weeks and was at a highpoint in my career in television production. While I fought to keep hold of the life I'd known - demanding, yet fulfilling career, busy social life, packed vacation schedule - after four years of running my body into the ground, I realized I was fighting life, not living it. Thus, I downshifted almost every aspect of my life. I let go of my career and made it my number one priority to get myself back in good health. I'm proud to say that I've reached my goal, but work each day to maintain that healthy lifestyle. despite lupus. My book details the steps it took to reach that goal. A native of Indiana and graduate of the University of Notre Dame, I reside in Alexandria, Virginia with my husband, two young daughters, and pug dog.
